"I'm heavily inspired by radical print design, particularly of the 70s after the birth of the Xerox, such as Shrew and OZ Magazine as well as protest banners and zines. I love the fast-paced, imperfect, tactile feeling and I try to emulate this through physically editing my work."
"I'm passionate about the social implications this era had on graphic design and how the commercial printer made it accessible to create physical work quickly and economically."
"Much of the visual material Eloise transfers onto the printed page is found among collections of old printed matter, photography or in films."
"Eloise brings images and text together in new and unexpected ways, seeing self-publishing as a way to distribute her own collections of references and research."
The designer draws inspiration from 70s radical print design, particularly influenced by Xerox technology, protest banners, and zines. She employs hand-rendered techniques like collaging and scanning to capture the imperfect, tactile essence of this era. Her work emphasizes the social implications of accessible graphic design, focusing on the emotional connection of printed materials. Eloise's publications combine found visual materials with her research, showcasing the legacy of Xerox art and independent publishing, influenced by key designers in her journey.
